SillySod, I'm sorry about your experience, but it's been my experience in Britain that if an autumn leaf has the AUDACITY to fall on a rail line, everything will come to a screeching halt.

fatbrit

Not surprising, then, with all these British men about

Silly Sod

Now can we please get back to some good ole yankee baiting!!!

ugacrew

Damn these hormones. I'm afraid you're right so be careful. Or is danger your middle name? LoL

SuzanneMaria

I'm up for Yankee-baiting if you don't mind some Brit-bashing.

ugacrew

Oh god! MUST....NOT....GO....THERE! Oh hell let's go there. So I take it you are the Master Baiter then eh?

Silly Sod

It's Ruprect, family thing

SuzanneMaria

For example, how could anyone other than a two-year-old find being called a "silly cow" or a "silly moo" insulting, unless he or she was retarded?

Silly Sod

We can take it. Here's one for ya. My wife wanted to celebrate 4th july when we lived in the UK. I said - only if we can also celebrate the fall of saigon - wa wa wa wa waaaaaa

Suzanne, this is the BRITISH EXPATS site, not the USA Expat site.

Brits usually bash themselves far better than any Yank could manage it. Doesn't happen the other way, though.

Silly Sod

Wait till some girl in a mini skirt and white high heels has got you against the wall in some pub, pint glass poised to strike, drunkenly imagining she saw you looking at her boyfriend and screaming - c'mon then you f uckin sill cow!!!

You'll have a whole new outlook

Silly Sod

I'd karma you again if I could. We are a funny breed us brits. We love to laugh at ourselves, gives us the right to take the piss out of everybody else - hurrah for us

ugacrew

This sounds like the start of a girl-on-girl fantasy of yours. Am I right? The detail. White high heels and a mini skirt. Sod I'm impressed.

Frrussre and fatbrit:

Many Brits hang out on the American expat sites. I can understand it if they have a partner or close friend who's American, but that's usually not the case--it's simple nosiness. So I figure, given that I have an English husband, it might be okay for me to do the same.
